I got a tip at Cine Gear Expo that Mortal Kombat Rebirth was shot using the new RED Mysterium Sensor. If this is an example of what we can expect from the new sensor, then Red Users should rejoice. It looks great. The Mysterium Sensor records at 4520 X 2540. They are calling it “Ultra High Definition” or UHD. Here is the info from the Red site.

“ Record 2540 progressive at up to 30 fps REDCODE RAW. With 4520 X 2540 pixels, Mysterium™ puts pure digital Ultra-High Def in the palm of your hand.

RED ONE™ and REDCINE™ also support down-sampling to 1080p and 720p for in-field monitoring and compatibility with non-linear editors.

You get the same breathtaking field of view and selective focus found on film cameras. Mysterium™ boasts a greater than 66db Signal to Noise Ratio thanks to its large 29 sq. micron pixels. And 12,065,000 pixels deliver resolution that can only be called Ultra High Definition.”
